Oh the comfort, the inexplicable comfort of feeling safe with a person,


Having neither to weigh words, nor measure thoughts.....

Yep, this is it ........

UNTITLED
Dinah Maria Mulock Craik

Oh the comfort � the inexplicable comfort of feeling safe with a person
Having neither to weigh thoughts, nor measure words �
But pouring them all right out � just as they are � chaff and grain together �
Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them �
Keep what is worth keeping �
And with the breath of kindness
Blow the rest away.

It's a George Eliot poem I believe!?!?
